PITTSBURGH, PA (January 27, 2022) – The Department of Public Safety preparing for President Joe Biden and members of his administration to Pittsburgh this Friday, January 28.

During his brief stay in the city, President Biden will be visiting the research and development hub, Mill 19, in Hazelwood.(that was copied from the local news) Any good frequencies to listen to I understand that all federal frequencies are most likely digital and highly encrypted just wanted to see if anyone else will be trying to scan around and if anyone has any frequencies they heard activity on before.

City police will use their encrypted channels for city ops. (ICS. OPS etc..) Might use regional or pema for traffic control on parkway from airport.

Well PGH Ops and Regional are currently being used for an MCI in Pittsburgh. Maybe they'll use a Public Safety Channel and PGH PD Admin or ICS. What freq would ICS be?

Allegheny County regional channel they are using right now for the bridge collapse due to MCI resources does not have Pittsburgh ops channel in their radios

I was picking up Comms on an un-listed PAT freq, a few transmissions on a Allegheny County Training Academy freq, picking up 2 different PL's on Tactical Ops, as well as various emissions on 2 unknown County freqs. I have a lot of sorting through things to do tomorrow to try to narrow down any specific uses

Here were my findings yesterday. All of the freqs were in CCTCS/DCS Search while in the West Mifflin area. If ant of you would want to put these into scan lists to try to narrow down specifics to be added to the database, that would be great! The header is who the primary licensee is, but there may be more licenses on the same freqs.

County Freqs
470.5125 PL 127.3 Possibly Tactical Ops
470.5122 no PL (Voice and Data bits)
470.5125 PL 123.0 " 19, 11:52"
494.600 PL 67.0 Data Sounds
494.450 PL 67.0 Data Sounds
470.4625 PL 103.5 Key up, no voice

Port Authority
453.7625 no PL, just morse code (Port Authority channel)
453.7625 PL 192.8 Muffled, but I did hear voice. (Data bits with analog voice in the background)
453.2875 Data bits, possibly a data channel of a trunked system
453.8875 Data bits, possibly a data channel of a trunked system
453.2875 PL 141.3 Sounded like a bus calling Traffic
453.2875 PL 192.8 "6445 is a no show" "43356 bus?" (Possibly a secondary channel to not tie up the main garage channel, or a maintenance channel?

Allegheny County Training Academy
463.2875 Data bits, possibly a data channel of a trunked system
461.9625 PL 203.5 Law Enforcement stuff (Unknown if used for the POTUS detail, the bridge detail, or at the Academy, but they were running plates, and talking about who was where)
463.9125 Data bits, possibly a data channel of a trunked system

This one is probably the university police repeater at Carlow (same freq and PL).
